The proposed research is oriented to investigate what needs to be identified in the adaptation of a closed blood handling device and testing vehicle for hiv assay utilizing elisa multi-enzyme and/or recombinant dna methods. This program will assess the technical requirements to develop this closed blood handling device as well as the encapsulation of the multi-enzymes within the closed system and adapting the device to MDI'S "Pre-Donor Screen System."
